has no time for rude fans.

“Somebody get him out of here. I do not want him at my show. Get out of my show,” Pearce, 34, was filmed saying during her set at WE Fest in Detroit Lakes, Minnesota, on Friday, August 2. “If you’re gonna be an a—hole, then you’re going to have to say it to me and get the f—k out of my show. I do not have time for d—ks.”

Pearce concluded, yelling, “See ya later.” The concertgoer was presumably escorted out of the crowd. Before she started the next song, Pearce held her hands out to the side and shrugged her shoulders.

Various videos of the incident have since gone viral, with multiple TikTok commenters wondering what went down to prompt Pearce’s brash reaction.

According to reports, Pearce was gearing up to intro the next song in her set when the audience member started heckling the country star.

“I want to tell you all a little bit about me,” she said. The heckler apparently replied, “No one cares.”

His comment prompted Pearce’s reaction. After the heckler was removed, the singer further addressed the crowd.

“Words hurt, that hurt me. That was not nice,” she said. “I’m just here to tell you guys, be kind. Do not say mean things to people just to be mean. Don’t think there aren’t consequences for it. It is not kind; It is not right, and I do not believe that he should have been in my show if he’s gonna speak to me like that.”

She continued: “That is the first time I have ever sent somebody out of one of my shows, but if somebody’s going to be that mean and disrespect me, you are not welcome. So, thank you for being so kind to me tonight, and for showing up. And seriously, just be nice to people. Do not be mean. It is not worth it.”

“Since I have seen this all over, I figured I would respond,” Pearce shared via X in March after fans questioned why she would work with Hurd on a rendition of ’s song “Breakdown” for the Petty Country: A Country Music Celebration of Tom Petty album.
